ΒΑΣΙΛΕΙΩΝ Α´ - 1 Samuele - Kings I 5

GREEK BIBLE	DOUAI-RHEIMS
1 Οι δε Φιλισταιοι ελαβον την κιβωτον του Θεου και εφεραν αυτην απο Εβεν-εζερ εις Αζωτον.	1 And the Philistines took the ark of God, and carried it from the Stone of help into Azotus.
2 Και ελαβον οι Φιλισταιοι την κιβωτον του Θεου και εφεραν αυτην εις τον οικον του Δαγων, και εθεσαν αυτην πλησιον του Δαγων.	2 And the Philistines took the ark of God, and brought it into the temple of Dagon, and set it by Dagon.
3 Και οτε οι Αζωτιοι εσηκωθησαν ενωρις την επαυριον, ιδου, ο Δαγων πεσμενος κατα προσωπον αυτου επι της γης ενωπιον της κιβωτου του Κυριου. Και λαβοντες τον Δαγων, κατεστησαν αυτον εις τον τοπον αυτου.	3 And when the Azotians arose early the next day, behold Dagon lay upon his face on the ground before the ark of the Lord: and they took Dagon, and set him again in his place.
4 Και την επαυριον οτε εσηκωθησαν ενωρις το πρωι, ιδου, ο Δαγων πεσμενος κατα προσωπον αυτου επι της γης ενωπιον της κιβωτου του Κυριου? και η κεφαλη του Δαγων και αι δυο παλαμαι των χειρων αυτου αποκεκομμεναι επι του κατωφλιου? μονον ο κορμος του Δαγων εναπεμεινεν εις αυτον.	4 And the next day again, when they rose in the morning, they found Dagon lying upon his face on the earth before the ark of the Lord: and the head of Dagon, and both the palms of his hands were cut off upon the threshold:
5 Δια τουτο εν τη Αζωτω οι ιερεις του Δαγων, και πας ο εισερχομενος εις τον οικον του Δαγων, δεν πατουσιν εις το κατωφλιον του Δαγων εως της ημερας ταυτης.	5 And only the stump of Dagon remained in its place. For this cause neither the priests of Dagon, nor any that go into the temple tread on the threshold of Dagon in Azotus unto this day.
6 Και επεβαρυνθη η χειρ του Κυριου επι τους Αζωτιους, και εξωλοθρευσεν αυτους και επαταξεν αυτους με αιμορροιδας, την Αζωτον και τα ορια αυτης.	6 And the hand of the Lord was heavy upon the Azotians, and he destroyed them, and afflicted Azotus and the coasts thereof with emerods. And in the villages and fields in the midst of that country, there came forth a multitude of mice, and there was the confusion of a great mortality in the city.
7 Και οτε ειδον οι ανδρες της Αζωτου οτι εγεινεν ουτως, ειπον, Η κιβωτος του Θεου του Ισραηλ δεν θελει κατοικει μεθ' ημων? διοτι η χειρ αυτου εσκληρυνθη εφ' ημας και επι τον Δαγων τον θεον ημων.	7 And the men of Azotus seeing this kind of plague, said: The ark of the God of Israel shall not stay with us: for his hand is heavy upon us, and upon Dagon our god.
8 Οθεν αποστειλαντες εσυναξαν προς εαυτους παντας τους σατραπας των Φιλισταιων και ειπον, Τι θελομεν καμει εις την κιβωτον του Θεου του Ισραηλ; οι δε ειπον, Η κιβωτος του Θεου του Ισραηλ ας μετακομισθη εις Γαθ. Και μετεκομισαν την κιβωτον του Θεου του Ισραηλ.	8 And sending, they gathered together all the lords of the Philistines to them, and said: What shall we do with the ark of the God of Israel? And the Gethrites answered: Let the ark of the God of Israel be carried about. And they carried the ark of the God of Israel about.
9 Αφου δε μετεκομισαν αυτην, η χειρ του Κυριου ητο εναντιον της πολεως με ολεθρον μεγαν σφοδρα? και επαταξε τους ανδρας της πολεως, απο μικρου εως μεγαλου, και εξεφυησαν εις αυτους αιμορροιδες.	9 And while they were carrying it about, the band of the Lord came upon every city with an exceeding great slaughter: and he smote the men of every city, both small and great, and they had emerods in their secret parts. And the Gethrites consulted together, and made themselves seats of skins.
10 Δια τουτο απεστειλαν την κιβωτον του Θεου εις Ακκαρων. Και ως ηλθεν η κιβωτος του Θεου εις Ακκαρων, οι Ακκαρωνιται εβοησαν, λεγοντες, Εφεραν την κιβωτον του Θεου του Ισραηλ εις ημας, δια να θανατωση ημας και τον λαον ημων.	10 Therefore they sent the ark of God into Accaron. And when the ark of God was come into Accaron, the Accaronites cried out, saying: They have brought the ark of the God of Israel to us, to kill us and our people.
11 Και αποστειλαντες εσυναξαν παντας τους σατραπας των Φιλισταιων και ειπον, Αποπεμψατε την κιβωτον του Θεου του Ισραηλ, και ας επιστρεψη εις τον τοπον αυτης, δια να μη θανατωση ημας και τον λαον ημων? διοτι ητο τρομος θανατου εφ' ολην την πολιν? η χειρ του Θεου ητο εκει βαρεια σφορα.	11 They sent therefore and gathered together all the lords of the Philistines: and they said: Send away the ark of the God of Israel, and let it return into its own place, and not kill us and our people.
12 Και οι ανδρες οσοι δεν απεθανον, εκτυπηθησαν απο αιμορροιδας? και η κραυγη της πολεως ανεβη εις τον ουρανον.	12 For there was the fear of death in every city, and the hand of God was exceeding heavy. The men also that did not die, were afflicted with the emerods: and the cry of every city went up to heaven.
